Nikon D850 FX-format DSLR Camera Body

Nikon D850 FX-Format Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)

The Ultimate Multitool DSLR

For landscape, wedding, macro, and studio photographers who appreciate the optical clarity, robust build, and unparalleled battery life of a traditional Digital Single-Lens Reflex (DSLR) system, the Nikon D850 stands as a historic achievement. Widely considered one of the greatest all-around DSLRs ever created, it effortlessly bridges the gap between high resolution and high speed.

At its core is a stunning 45.7-megapixel back-illuminated (BSI) full-frame sensor paired with the EXPEED 5 image processor. This enables studio photographers to capture extreme textures and massive dynamic range, while giving action photographers the muscle to shoot fast bursts using the same class-leading 153-point autofocus system found in Nikon’s flagship D5 sports camera.

Why You'll Love This Camera

• Stunning 45.7MP BSI Sensor: Nikon designed this sensor without an optical low-pass filter to extract the absolute maximum sharpness from your lenses. The back-illuminated structure maximizes light gathering, delivering phenomenal dynamic range and a base ISO of 64—allowing for exceptionally clean highlight recovery in landscape work.

• Flagship 153-Point Autofocus: Inherited directly from the professional D5, this autofocus system includes 99 cross-type sensors and operates down to a dim -4 EV. It tracks erratic movement with ease, making it highly reliable for birds in flight, fast-moving athletes, and dark reception dance floors.

• Versatile Continuous Shooting: Out of the box, the D850 shoots high-resolution bursts at 7 frames per second. If you attach the optional MB-D18 battery grip and use an EN-EL18 series battery, that speed jumps to an impressive 9 frames per second.

• Legendary Battery Life: Unlike mirrorless cameras that drain batteries quickly to power electronic viewfinders, the D850's optical pentaprism viewfinder draws virtually no power. It is CIPA-rated for an astonishing 1,840 shots per charge on a standard battery, allowing you to shoot all day without a single swap.

• True Hybrid Video: It was the first Nikon DSLR to capture uncropped 4K UHD video up to 30p using the full width of its full-frame sensor. It also features a built-in 8K intervalometer for producing breathtaking ultra-high-resolution time-lapse movies.

• Illuminated Buttons: A godsend for night landscape, astrophotography, and concert shooters, a quick flick of the power switch lights up the camera's rear buttons so you can easily adjust settings in pitch-black conditions.

Technical Specifications

Things to Note

The D850 is a legendary workhorse; its video autofocus uses contrast detection. Additionally, as a professional, weather-sealed DSLR, the body is significantly larger and heavier than equivalent full-frame mirrorless cameras. Finally, it uses the classic Nikon F-mount. While there are decades of legendary F-mount lenses available on both the new and used market, Nikon has shifted its primary research and engineering focus onto their mirrorless Z-mount lineup.
